Hi
I've been going through my photos, and I would like help with these fungi. The photos were taken around London in October.

Fungi 1: About 2" across, looked like a dried apricot:

Fungi 2: About 6" diameter

Fungi 3: 3 or 4 large fungi, this one about 12" across

Fungi 4: Is this Violet Webcap? about 2.5" diameter.

Many thanks in advance, I'm trying to get into fungi ID without much sucess :-)

No 1. Fistulina hepatica
No 2. This has the look of an old Tylopilus felleus.
No 3. Could be a Boletus badius - really need to see the stem and any signs of the pore layer bruising blue.
No 4. If only fungi were this easy ! No chance of an ID I feel. (too old)
